Sweet!! I'm new with the buffalo wing making, but my favorite bar makes some awesome unbreaded wings that I'm working on replicating. Thanks for the quick reply too!

Not breaded, just fryed then tossed in sauce.

So I'm making buffalo wings for a superbowl party that is an hour and a half from my house. I was going to fry them, bring them to the party naked, then toss them in a slow cooker with the sauce for awhile. Will this cause them to get soggy since they'll cool down during the car ride? Or...

Awesome, thanks for the info everyone! I have always heard around here that it's too much work to do lobster and to just go to a restaurant, but that'll be easy as pie to do. We'll probably get together and do it sometime in January after the holidays, so I'll let you all know how it goes.

So my fiance and I were talking with his cousin and girlfriend about doing some lobsters at home. We are in MN, about as far from any ocean as you can get in the US. I've never cooked live lobster before, but it can't be that hard from the bit I've read so far. So, for the complete lobster...

Hi, I haven't been around here in awhile. I downloaded the trial version and have been working with it a bit. So far so good. My question is, have you kept the preinstalled recipes and lists, or did you make your own and delete the other stuff? I'm really into having a lean system, without...

thanks auntdot; that's kind of what i figured, that it would be packed by weight. yes, can sizes are so impossible to figure out these days, whether it's by weight or volume. i'll figure 4-5lbs of fresh s.potatoes and see how that works and adjust if needed.

i have a recipe that calls for 2 29oz cans of sweet potatoes. i have fresh ones. do cans come packed by weight usually or volume? anyone know how many pounds of sweet potatoes to boil up?

i have a carcass from a turkey we deep fried for Christmas in the fridge. it's pretty well picked over. can i make turkey stock out of it just like a roasted turkey, or will the bits of fried skin make it weird?

thanks for all the help guys. after showing him this thread and talking to few relatives, they convinced him that our countertop is likely not glued in and should be easy to remove. still haven't sold him on the butcher block idea yet, but at least he's given up on tile. it may still have to...

i need some advice. my boyfriend and i have an ongoing argument about new countertops in the kitchen. right now it is an icky brown laminate that probably came straight out of the 80's. we have both agreed that we want to replace it. the disagreement is what do replace it with. he wants to tile...

Andy M- yes, i'd have to clean any other pan, but the deep fryer we have at home doesn't come apart easily and doesn't fit in the sink. and the sprayer on the faucet doesn't work either, which my plumber of a boyfriend has yet to fix in almost two years... last time i used it and tried to...

i have a deep fryer at home, but it's a pain in the neck to keep clean so i figured i would just use a big pot and a thermometer. what would be the best type of pot to use? cast iron, aluminum, ss? mostly make french fries right now, might try onion rings and mozz sticks later though. thanks...

thanks for the replies everyone and the troublshooting advice, it's a great help. the loaf that subfuscpersona made looks like i want it to. i was originally putting it in a warm oven becasue i wasn't sure if the room temperature was enough, it was really cold here in minnesota last month. i...

i'm thinking of buying a copper pan, it's a toss up between falk and mauviel. i like the brushed surface of the falk more than the shiny surface of the mauviel, but mauviel is available at bed bath and beyond so i can use 20% off coupons, which drops the price quite a bit. can someone who has...
